i need something which is faster than rybka 4 . by fast i dont mean calculating the moves . as i have 8 gb ram and intel iris xe graphics ; i think my stuttering problem is related to the GUI's inabilitiy to switch fast enough between variants when i try to enter new moves. (let me explain it 
actually the problem occurs after the analyze is stopped ,i try to enter the moves 1 by 1 via dragging the pieces with my mouse fastly , then the program cant match my speed . in other words it lags to enter the moves and gives me some freezes, lags etc.. btw i dont have to move them super fast even if i move it moderately slowly and just make 1 move it kinda frezzes for a sec or too . in my old pc's i dont remember having this problem but in this new one which on paper seems much better than in every aspect of hardware i had there is this problem .very weird.. ?btw dont bother to say use this engine or that cuz whichever engine i use the problem is te same even if i change the hashtable size to 1 mb the problem remains!! and 1 very pecuiliar thing is when i close my own database and open a new game or something . the lag doesnt totally disapper but decreases like %60 . (btw my database file ; ie cbh. file may not be very big database but its not divideed .let me explain that so when regular chessbase people like Daniel king. etc make files they diviide it into parts and subparts and chapters etc . so when u open the cbh file u see lots of diffrent games to click maybe 50 or 100 games .even the big databases that u can use have millions of games inside and  everbody can open them properly . but i dont make my own database like that .i want everything in the same file cuz its my opening repertoire so it seems like 1 game but its a huge collection of games ,with variant after variants sometimes going till the very end of the game, openings and etc i once tried to print it ,it was like 60 pages or something..).  i need a solution.please help . 

1: this post is over 10 years old, never post on a forum thread that is years old

2: stockfish 11, an engine better than rybka 4, is built into chess.com. Just go to https://www.chess.com/analysis and there are multiple ways to enter positions or games into that for it to evaluate

Also if your problem is it isn't loading evaluations when you go through a lot of moves really fast, just wait a few seconds, then go forward and backward once quickly and it should load it fine.

It's been 12 years since this was published, forget about Rybka 4, look for another chess engine, Stcofksh in its latest version is the best option.
Maybe also switch to another GUI, there are several options but the most popular free option is Arena Chess. Anyway you can choose to buy a GUI or go for the free one you prefer, look for a GUI that is being kept up to date.

thanks a lot for all of u guys

. i tried arena but found it so complicated. (it probably didnt support cbh files i guess so i tried to open the pgn format but dont remember what happened the interface of arena was very distastefully iriitating cuz it was so complicated.. )

then i tried scid vs pc it didnt support it  i guess cuz it gave an error like this ! "Opening Sniper-ACdr. PG MB SB DI KI.pgn read-only
Importing file D:/YEDEK MIKROO USB/Sniper-ACdr. PG MB SB DI KI/Sniper-ACdr. PG MB SB DI KI.pgn
Error encoding game. Game size 256000, Max game size 131072. 
Error saving game in database."   

... i dont remember of stockfish haveing an GUI. i also tried lucas chess which is a great program for solvin puzzles and stuff but it dont support my file either..i found 2 programs that i can use online in my browsert but i need something permanent! something that i can install on my pc which is user friendly and can support my files..

There is no benefit to using an engine when you can instead just use your own mind.

 

It's more fun,  more rewarding and chess is just a game.

 

No winner would opt to have someone or something else play for them.  

There is a huge benefit to using an engine when analyzing your games, simply because the engine is better. It might show you the best move you might never have thought of.

 

Nobody said there were gonna use the engine for cheating.

 

Saying chess is just a game does not make your "opinion" valid.

Chess is pretty fun,  guess some people are just afraid to do it themselves.

 

And nothing stops you from being better than an engine.

 

Winners are bulls.  

"And nothing stops you from being better than an engine." Shows how much you know about chess, the WORLD CHAMPION of chess is ~1000 elo worse than the world's best engine right now.

 

"If you use an engine to analyze a position then the engine is doing it and not you." ...So if you hire a teacher to teach you about chess, are you not really learning anything, because the teacher is creating and explaining the lessons and not you?

Your "world champion" never played me so obviously they're not much of a world champion.


They are an organization or site's champion. 

 

Similarly, the engines are only better than the players they can beat.   

 

Have fun spectating your "Teachers"  it's probably much safer than actually playing the game.

 

Might I also suggest you watch others do careers,  date,  socialize,  exercise,  dine or any number of things since that's your speed? 

 

/s

"Your 'world champion' never played me so obviously they're not much of a world champion." Lol you're 900 elo thinking you can beat Magnus Carlsen.

 

"They are an organization or site's champion." Nope. World champion. There is an official world champion chess tournament and he won the most recent one. Look it up.

 

"Similarly, the engines are only better than the players they can beat." Right, which in the case of Stockfish, LC0, Dragon, Ethereal, Rubi, Seer, the list goes on and on, they can beat literally anybody in the entire world.

 

"Might I also suggest you watch others do careers,  date,  socialize,  exercise,  dine or any number of things since that's your speed?" If somebody has more experience or is better than you at something, you should take their advice, listen to them (the chess engine).

You can have your "official" organizations.  I've yet to make any opinion or judge it or them myself.

And no,  engines are only shown to be able to beat players they have played.  I'll believe them when I see them.

 

I have been playing chess since the 8th,  and so far,  I don't think this seems like a game that computers should be able to brute force.

 

If engines can play this,  they have to have some way of cutting corners or weeding out various possibilities / just juggling a few candidates and THAT means they are beatable.   Just have better ideas.

 

That is *if* chess even has good computers / engines yet (or players for that matter)

 

Sry for slam dunking your "arguments"  In hindsight,  that read off like a little bit of a roast,  and it wasn't my intention.  

Funniest post I've read in a very long time. Thanks for the grand entertainment...

https://www.chess.com/play/computer go there, scroll all the way down until you see "ENGINE" click that thing that has a "1" on it, slide the slider ALL THE WAY to the right side, you should see "Maximum (3200)" Then click the green "choose" button. Watch how badly you get beat. AND THAT'S STILL ~600 ELO WORSE THAN STOCKFISH 15 NNUE.

 

Just because you haven't played them or judged them doesn't mean they have no credibility. It sounds like you're just full of yourself when you say stuff like that.

I'm not judging stockfish nor carl.  I'm refraining to do so until I see for myself.

 

I've yet to decide if the chess world is worth anything,  as far as skill of either it's players or it's constructs.


If they,  or anything else in the chess world has credibility such as to make your thoughts make sense,  I am sure I will encounter something juicy in my chess journey.

 

Not holding my breath,    My first impressions was that 1) chess could be deep but 2) the chess world is shallow and unrefined despite the game deserving and potentially supporting better

Don't worry, the chess world will survive, with or without you...

Whether it will hold up or have to change is the only question.

"Or have to change" From what? What specifically is wrong with "chess" as it is right now?

then i tried scid vs pc it didnt support it  i guess cuz it gave an error like this ! "Opening Sniper-ACdr. PG MB SB DI KI.pgn read-only
Importing file D:/YEDEK MIKROO USB/Sniper-ACdr. PG MB SB DI KI/Sniper-ACdr. PG MB SB DI KI.pgn
Error encoding game. Game size 256000, Max game size 131072. 
Error saving game in database."   

... i dont remember of stockfish haveing an GUI. i also tried lucas chess which is a great program for solvin puzzles and stuff but it dont support my file either..i found 2 programs that i can use online in my browsert but i need something permanent! something that i can install on my pc which is user friendly and can support my files..

I think I may understand your problem, at least as far as Scid vs. PC goes. If I understand you correctly, you're putting a massive amount of information into only one game, by creating a huge number of variations?

In that Scid error message, it's telling you that your game size is 256,000 bytes, but the maximum game size that Scid allows is only 131,072 bytes. In Scid's "Help" section, it states that Scid can usually represent a single move with 8 bytes of data. Therefore, Scid can only allow an average of 16,384 moves in a single game. (131,072 divided by 8). However, your game apparently has at least 32,000 moves in it. (256,000 divided by 8).

So, it seems to me that you need to stop creating games that exceed Scid's size limitation. You can still view all of the variations by using Scid's "Tree Window" feature.

And as far as your Chessbase GUI is concerned, it seems to me that it can handle your game size of 32,000 moves, but due to the large game size, the GUI is acting sluggishly.

If you use an engine to analyze a position then the engine is doing it and not you.


similarly,  if you use an engine to play,  then the engine is playing for you.

 

If you don't like to play chess,  then carry on.  


Chess is pretty fun,  guess some people are just afraid to do it themselves.

 

And nothing stops you from being better than an engine.

 

Winners are bulls.  

 

The fact that you use a chess engine to review your games does not mean that you never analyze or calculate them yourself. There's something about chess puzzles, you try to solve those on your own. In chess you can train every detail and it is not always about analyzing everything yourself, the calculation and analysis capacity can be trained separately and the review of games you can perfectly see the suggestions of the chess engine.


Do you have 6 hours or more daily to train chess?
Well, analyze all your games usingtd itself without the help of the engine (optional).
Do you have no more than 24 hours a week to study chess?
So better analyze the games with the chess engine and train the calculation separately with appropriate puzzles to improve and focusing in a correct way (lots of puzzles if easy for pattern recognition, not so many puzzles if relatively difficult, these to improve calculation ).

You can have your "official" organizations.  I've yet to make any opinion or judge it or them myself.

And no,  engines are only shown to be able to beat players they have played.  I'll believe them when I see them.

 

I have been playing chess since the 8th,  and so far,  I don't think this seems like a game that computers should be able to brute force.

 

If engines can play this,  they have to have some way of cutting corners or weeding out various possibilities / just juggling a few candidates and THAT means they are beatable.   Just have better ideas.

 

That is *if* chess even has good computers / engines yet (or players for that matter)

 

Sry for slam dunking your "arguments"  In hindsight,  that read off like a little bit of a roast,  and it wasn't my intention.  

The really superficial thing here is someone who is discussing things that he has no idea, you should check out the story of Garry Kasparov against Deep Blue and Deep Blue Junior, take into account what date all this happened then read the history of the development of chess engines before and after the 21st century, ask how different the playing strength of a current chess engine is compared to one from 10 or 5 years ago.

"Garry K" and "Deep blue" have no meaning to me.

I'm sure Chess engines, if they are being called Engines brute force filtered lines to a certain depth OR call a resource in final positions when applicable, and even the latter i'm not sure exists yet BUT if it does that's how they do it.

If you, or an article tried to tell me otherwise, i'd be highly suspicious and write you off accordingly.

You haven't even been playing chess for a full month, stop talking like you know everything.

Of course, ignore Garry Kasparov, Magnus Carlsen and ask for evidence to prove the chess strength of the strongest chess engines in the world. It's obvious from the start it's obvious that you're not even being serious. There are many normal ways to entertain yourself, I have no more to tell you after that.

Idle noise.

I have yet to see indicators that I am not the strongest (despite being brand spanking new) I can one by one go through every machine or man randoms point me to, and go through the millions of chess playing entities by the time i'm done.

LOL hard pass. My time is more valuable than that and yours.

If there is a worthy thing in the chess world I expect it to make itself known in due time.

And I do hope i'm wrong, and that chess has something to show for itself after such a long runtime.

yeah i think u got it right ! but what can i do now ! i put like years of effort on that opening study ! so i dont wanna destroy it ! what is ur suggestion ? for example a pgn cutter than can divide the pgn version of it into 3 pieces so every on of the file would have less then 32000 moves ? for now i am using a site called "https://chesstempo.com/pgn-viewer/" but i can only use it on my home or somewhere that has internet acces . iwould be going to some other city the next week or so and i wouldnt have a stable internet connection so i need something static like rybka 4 that can be installed on my pc and can work without internet connection ! please guys i have been trying to figure a solution to this problem for months and still couldnt found a stable solution .any help will be much appreciated ! thanks...

My guess is that trying to cut the pgn file into 3 pieces wouldn't work.

Do you have all of the original games that you used to create this one "master" pgn file? If so, you could just use the database of all of the original games. You could read the database into Scid vs. PC, then use the Tree Window to view all of the variations.

If you don't have all of the original games, then I can only think of one thing that might work, but even then, it's a long shot. You could try using the pgn-extract program with the --splitvariants flag, which outputs each variation as a separate game. Then you could read that games database back into Scid vs. PC. The only potential problem is that I don't know if pgn-extract will work on a pgn file as large as yours, and I don't know how many levels of nested variations it can handle.
